"It looks like any normal fish fillet and yet it has never seen the sea.

In a world first, this grouper fillet has been created from cells grown in a
lab and then 3D printed into a natural, fishy, shape.

It is the creation of Israeli deep-tech food company Steakholder Foods and
Singapore’s Umami Meats, who claim it has the same taste and texture of a
traditionally caught fish, yet is far more sustainable.

Overfishing is a global problem, with marine experts estimating around one
third of the world’s fish stocks are currently overexploited or depleted.

Around one quarter of the grouper fish species face extinction because of
overfishing or poor management of coral reef fisheries."
